Apogee - Paying The Bill lyrics

All of those years I studied hard to learn the state of the art bearing the hardships of my start with pa**ionate heart believing that I'm well on my way where future waits with brighter days Wise men defined this quest for life - their tool to select those who'll be able to survive - to follow their track only the best shall be leading the rest providing for our future needs But now the wind has changed - markets re-arranged no one needs you now - you should try again anyhow Such a drop of need we could not foresee go improve your sk**s and take care to pay all your bills All of those years you've optimised your short term approach immediate profit at the price of selling your soul while internally - spinning the wheel spread an intrigue - make a deal And all of a sudden you realise - you're caught in a trap multiple problems will arise - now is your time to jump off before it's too late - climb up the next stage reset all options of the game Now the wind has changed - markets re-arranged no one needs you now - you should try again anyhow Such a drop of need no one could foresee go improve your sk**s and take care to pay all your bills Gradually the aftermath reveals - the long term impacts of your deals the piled up yields of brighter days - ran off dark channels without a trace The mess is again - in ancient tradition - just socialised our wise men emphasise: a change we need in structural approach No one can count the loss entailed - by leaving fallow those who failed to offer their abilities - in time with economic needs once being raised by enormous resources provided through all those years from the public purse now being left to fall - kept in suspense
